It provides the reader with all the necessary tools to enable accurate calculations of circuit designs. Rather than complex equations, this book uses extensive worked examples to make understanding the calculations simpler. The focus on worked examples furnishes the reader with the knowledge to carry out the necessary checks to electrical cable sizing software programmes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOther key features include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUpdated information on 230 volt references and voltage drop under normal load conditions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNew sections on buried cables that take into account soil thermal conductivity, trenches and grouping, allowing readers to carry out accurate cables sizing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInformation and examples of steel wired armour cables, new to this edition.
